comedy sequel Night At The Museum 2. When an evil Egyptian pharaoh is awoken en route to Washington's Smithsonian Institute Larry must rescue his inanimate buddies from historically-inspired tyranny. Night has fallen on the Smithsonian Institution in Washington D.C. The guides have gone home the lights are out the school kids are tucked in their beds... yet something incredible is stirring as former night guard Larry Daley (Ben Stiller) finds himself lured into his biggest most imagination-boggling adventure yet in which history truly comes alive. In this second installment of the Night at the Museum saga Larry faces a battle so epic it could only unfold in the corridors of the world's largest museum. Now Larry must try to save his formerly inanimate friends from what could be their last stand amid the wonders of the Smithsonian all of which from the famous paintings on the walls to the rocket ships in the halls suddenly have a mind of their own. The first ever film shot in the Smithsonian complex the fun begins as Larry has left behind the low-paying world of guarding museums to become a sought-after inventor of Daley Devices infomercial products. He seems to have it all - but something is missing in his life something that draws him back to his old haunt the Museum of Natural History where he once had the magical night of a lifetime. There he makes an unsettling discovery. His favourite exhibits indeed some of his truest friends have been deemed out-of-date. Packed into crates they await shipment to the vast archives of the Smithsonian. Their fate is unknown - that is until Larry recieves a distress call from the miniature cowboy Jebediah (Owen Wilson) who informs him of an impending disaster. It seems the newcomers have awoken their new digs including the Egyptian ruler Kahmunrah (Hank Azaria) who's in a particularly nasty mood after 3 000 years of slumber. Now he and a trio of history's most heinous henchmen - namely Ivan the Terrible (Christopher Guest) Napoleon Bonaparte (Alain Chabat) and Al Capone (Jon Bernthal) - are plotting to take over the museum (and then the globe) as they unleash the Army of the Underworld. Speeding to the nation's capital larry is clearly in over his head. But he's got some impressive new friends - from the brilliant Albert Einstein to honest Abe Lincoln to the one exhibit who takes his breath away - the irrepressible Amelia Earhart (Amy Adams) who spurs Larry to rediscover his missing sense of fun adventure. Along with his old buddies including Teddy Roosevelt (Robin Williams) Octavious (Steve Coogan) Sacajawea (Mizuo Peck) Attila The Hun (Patrick Gallagher) and the Neanderthals - Larry will stop at nothing to regain his friends and restore order to the National Mall from the Lincoln Memorial to the Air and Space Museum before the stroke of dawn.

INTRODUCTION
A trip to Blockbuster with my wife usually turns into an epic negotiation. We both approach the counter with our respective choices, ready to do battle to choose which films we will take home that night. I usually champion thrillers, dramas and action films, while she usually plumps for rom coms, family films and corset busting period pieces. After the necessary posturing, bluff and bluster, usually involving bribes such as toffee popcorn or a tub of Haagen Dazs, we usually manage to compromise. On this occasion, I agreed to make do without Public Enemy in favour of Night at The Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian. I was reluctant, as I had fairly low expectations of the film - despite moderately enjoying the first one ? as it didn?t seem a likely candidate for a successful sequel (ironic ...
Advantages: Great comedy, nice plot, good cast Disadvantages: none
~ When the lights go off the battle is on ~
Monday nights are always a quiet night in for me mainly with my mum and little brother so we tend to get through films on a Monday night. So last night while we were all feeling knackered and didn?t know what to watch as nothing was on as usual Jake offered the film Night at the Museum 2.

I am a big Ben Stiller fan I think he is pretty funny. Some of his previous films include some great ...
Advantages: Good family view Disadvantages: Not a patch on the sequel
fortune through his entrepreneurial skills, Daley now celebrated in chat shows and newspapers where he plug his products and gives cheesy advice on how to be Americas next Donald Trump. His relationship with his son Nicky (Jake Cherry) is also strong and all is well although he seems to have been dumped by the girl in the previous film, which means a new love interest can be inserted here.
By chance he happens to be walking by his old stamping ground at the New York Museum, popping in to discover it's having a face lift and all the old exhibits are being packed away and sent to the Smithsonian in Washington DC for storage. The plan is to replace them with modern teaching technology, including holograms, which means curator Dr McPhee (Ricky Gervais) is also destined for a dusty retirement.
As day turns to night in the museum Larry is ...
